It seemed like no one was responding to the letters sent out to family members, so the previous generation decided to personally visit potential head bosses and guardians themselves. Of course, they were met with "What do you want, old man?' or "Eww, get away from me!" when they tried to approach their younger relatives, leading them to believe they should have initially spoken to their parents instead. It was surprising to figure how far the family had branched out from their country of origin, China, and how ignorant their supposed the next generation of assassins were. Time was scarce, so they spread out, going from family to family, hoping someone would allow their child to participate in the dangers that was the duty of a Fauna. The first that volunteered of their own sheer will was the child of a previous yazuka leader, who in turn, followed his father's footsteps and became a yankee. He hopped from gang to gang, disinterested with each gang's morals of terrorizing anyone they could. So the offer of becoming a trained assassin caught the attention of the potential Head Boss, thus (slightly) ending his rebellious phase. The Guardians, on the other hand, needed much convincing to have the parents willingly part ways with their child, some easier to convince than others. Either way, the previous generation was able to get a handful of potential participants, now able to secretly test who was worthy enough to hold a position as a Fauna Guardian. After many tests of physical, mental, and emotional well being, they made the final decision, sending out the Fauna rings to those that were deemed worthy. | [atrb=valign,top][atrb=height,100%,true][atrb=style,width: 175px; border-left: 1px dotted #000; border-right: 1px dotted #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000;][classy=tdhead] ROSTER [/classy] [classy=rosterhead] » HEAD BOSS, (LIGHTNING, RAT) [/classy] --- Chester Wilkes [classy=rosterhead] » RAIN GUARDIAN [/classy] --- OPEN [classy=rosterhead] » MIST GUARDIAN (DOG) [/classy] --- Kai Rokudo [classy=rosterhead] » CLOUD GUARDIAN [/classy] --- OPEN [classy=rosterhead] » STORM GUARDIAN [/classy] --- OPEN [classy=rosterhead] » SKY GUARDIAN (TIGER) [/classy] --- reserved for lokii until 5/22/12 [classy=rosterhead] » SUN GUARDIAN (MONKEY) [/classy] --- reserved for jae until 5/23/12 [classy=rosterhead]» FORMER MEMBER, (CLOUD, DRAGON) [/classy] --- Grégoire Absolon |
[cs=2][atrb=style,border-left: 1px dotted #000; border-right: 1px dotted #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000;][classy=tdhead] BACKGROUND [/classy] Founded three generations ago, the Fauna family easily branded their name into Mafia history by its second generation. They're well known for their clean assassination missions, as well as other various jobs they've added to their resume over the years, such as interrogation and reconnaissance. They're also known for being a Famiglia that only accepts members of blood relation, meaning all bosses, guardians, and subordinates are related. The masks that they are known to wear during missions, or any other job they offer, are modeled after the animals of the Chinese Zodiac. Each generation is assigned a Zodiac despite their Flame attribute (and actual Zodiac sign), allowing various possibilities to what the next Dog, the next Rat, etc. could be. Zodiac positions do not hold a certain personality, and are merely given as an alternate identity for work. However, due to the fact that the Chinese Zodiac has thirteen (including the Cat) animals, the six Zodiac positions that are left are made into a secondary squadron. There have been quarrels about this rule; some want their children to be part of the primary squad, while others are fine with it because the positions are assigned randomly. | |
[atrb=valign,top,true][atrb=style,border-left: 1px dotted #000; border-right: 1px dotted #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000;][classy=tdhead] GUIDELINES [/classy] » You are allowed to pick which Flame you want, as well as which Zodiac sign and Squadron you want. Remember, the mask you receive will match the Zodiac you pick. Also, your Box Weapons and Animals doesn't have to match that of your Zodiac.
» That said, your character is given a tattoo that marks which Zodiac they have been given. It's your choice for what it looks like, but it should be reminiscent of your Zodiac. » The Primary Squadron will have 7 members, while the Secondary Squadron will have 6 members. Just so it's clear, the Primary squad will be of the GOOD alliance, while the Secondary squad will be of the EVIL alliance. (This shouldn't affect one's personal Alignment, but it's up to you.) This is because of internal conflicts concerning the whole separation of squads, and will eventually result in a civil war. » Again, your character must be related by blood. They could be a sister, uncle, cousin, etc. Yes, you can have a different surname, just make sure they're blood-related to someone of the Fauna Famiglia. » You have the choice between adding a FULL HISTORY or a SHORTENED HISTORY to how your character joined the current gen. of Fauna. (Should be listed under Miscellaneous Info in the application.) | [atrb=valign,top][atrb=style,width: 175px; border-left: 1px dotted #000; border-right: 1px dotted #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000;][classy=tdhead] TO-DO LIST [/classy] » Gather all guardians to have a meeting thread. (You can still roleplay with others while we wait for the rest of the guardians, but reserve one thread so you can join in on our meeting thread.) |
